Freedom and Lifestyle

"The prospect of owning and operating my own pharmacy is something that has excited me since I began my pharmacy career in 2005. With the guidance and tools provided by Medicine Shoppe Canada, I was able to achieve this goal early in my career. The professional pharmacy model allows me to provide my patients with dedicated and personalized service. I have the freedom to make my own decisions on how to meet the needs and expectations of my clients.

Investing in The Medicine Shoppe Pharmacy franchise took courage as I left a well-paying, stable, staff pharmacist position at a big-box competitor. The choice is already rewarding me professionally and in the future will allow me to pursue the lifestyle I desire."

I believe in patient care and service... this is the reason people will come back to you. Medicine Shoppe gives me the support and the environment where I can be my best for me and my patients."

Goodwill & Equity

"I spent a lot of time building up goodwill in my community… but it was always for someone else. I decided it was time to do it for myself, and Medicine Shoppe demonstrated to me that they could make it happen… I really should have done it years ago."

Box Store Blues

"I was tired of shift work, tired of rules, and tired of a windowless dispensary under fluorescent lights… I just wanted to be in control! Thankfully, Medicine Shoppe gave me the opportunity, the confidence and the tools to make it happen."

Professional Focus

"In pharmacy school, I imagined myself as the type of pharmacist that could make a real difference in the lives and health of my patients…Medicine Shoppe clearly stands for nurturing the relationship between customer and pharmacist…
I could never practice any other way."

Value of the System

"I think the Medicine Shoppe model represents the future of pharmacy. The programs, the professional focus and the
operations & marketing support is totally unique to the industry.
Other retailers talk about it…but Medicine Shoppe delivered."
